Import of Commanders from Blietzkrieg

My Blietzkrieg core was saved on 01 October. Now all commanders in that core are gone after importing into Panzerkrieg. (Steam, 5.2.0) If I try to replay last turn of Blietzkrieg it does not offer to save the core anymore. Any advice from the developers?

Have you tried opening a save in the Moscow mission from Blitzkrieg, going to the menu, clicking on core and then saving it manually from there?
That came up during beta, too. You need to export your Blitzkrieg core from the current Panzerkrieg version, otherwise bad things happen. (Extensive recoding was apparently necessary)
Please write back detailing exactly what you do.

I loaded last turn of Blietzkrieg. Finished it. Then on the strategic map I clicked on Army core icon. It opens the bar with units on the left with "Export core button" at the top. You save the core file. Then you start Panzerkrieg and it offers you to import the core. This time commanders and Waffen SS units are not missing.

Thanks!

Good job, forum members and moderator. Yes, I bet that is the situation; if you played and saved your core in 4.1.7, the new 5.2.0 does not completely recognize it. Going forward, Blitzkrieg cores saved in 5.2.0 will work with Panzerkrieg. Makes sense.
